IMBRA O.K. Under U.S. Constitution

[Turboguy 6]

Just relax, with all the touches you are likely close to the NOA-2. I would be happy to trade places with you. Administrative review like I am in can go on for years with no information available.

Yes, you only have to prove you have met for the intitial filing. At the interview you need to prove a real relatiionship. It is better to send copies of things like the airline boading passes with your original application. You should have the originals for the interview. It probably won't be a big deal but you never get anything back you send in so copies are the order unless it is something they need the original for.

I have always felt it was better not to send too much with the first filing. The more they have to look at the longer it might take but that is just a guess. I think you will be fine and together long before my fiancee and I will be. Best of luck. What was the reason you requested the waver?

I had a case approved last March ( I had filed in October originally and they kept sending it back to me.. once cause the fees went up in the middle etc) I had 3 years ago divorced a guy I was sponsoring for beating me up so I have 2 prior cases. I forgot to put the first case on the application this time but then just got notice that they pulled the second case from the dept of state to look at. That arrived at CSC on April 12th. THen I got touched 20th, 23 24 then nothing today. Do alot of touches mean I am getting somewhere or they will deny me? How do I know they are working on the IMBRA? They have never let me know I needed the imbra.. I just sent it anyway...The one that I had last year I cancelled because we broke up in the middle of the case.. no biggie.. He just didnt love me anymore and wanted to be with soeone else which is what I told the immigration..

I am so depressed about all of this.. My file is a colossal mess

So, if I am reading your post right you married a guy before on a K-1 and then divorced him because he beat you up but you forgot all about that when you did your application. OK, Yes, I can see why you are worried. All I can say is you are just going to have to wait and see what happens. It sounds like something most people would want to forget anyway. I wish you the best of luck.

No... I enclosed the divorce papers and disclosed the marriage.. I forgot to write down that I sponsored him in that little section cause there wasnt much room.. I pulled his papers and never followed the process. We never even went to an interview either..he got no greencard...and was prosecuted and got in trouble...i forgot to write out his case no on the paper but wrote the marriage and enclosed the dovorce papers... i just forgot to note the case no on that tiny space on the k1 app

I had noted it on the previous k1 and enclosed all the divorce papers both times ...

I am more just concerned with the waiver cause that other one got approved after teh freaky ex.... I divorced in 2004 and had a fiancee petition approved in 2006 I have had a petition approved since this event... I am concerned about IMBRA and what it will mean to me... I had and needed a reverse IMBRA to protect ME from this freaky foreigner .

I have not heard a thing in regards to whether I ever even needed the IMBRA to begin with and I have had no correspondance from them whatsoever. I find it very weird that NO ONE communicates with you the whole process....Nothing happens and things just sit and sit..

Why did they approve you with a NO2 and then send you to sit in another pile... That makes NO sense whatsover.....why approve you one place and then put you in another pile

It does look like they are working on your case so you may have some good news soon. California is slow. I agree it is the pits when you get passed one place and hit a snag in another where things are usually fast and automatic. This is also the second K-1 for my fiancee. She was here for 30 days on one a couple of years ago when she found out a secret about her fiance that she could not accept and returned home. A second K-1 for our beneficiary seems to trigger an A/R

I think you will be fine on what you were not able to tell them. Some of those forms seem like they were designed by a government offical. Places where you need space you don't have it and others where it is not necessary there is too much wasted space.

Screw the Govt!!!! They take our freedoms away left and right!! and people do NOTHING!

I say KILL BIG BROTHER!!!

That's what the Declaration of Independence states!

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with inherent and inalienable rights; that among these, are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; that to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness." --Declaration of Independence as originally written by Thomas Jefferson

"The strongest reason for people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." -- (Thomas Jefferson)

I'm a Marine and we swear to protect the Constitution! NOT the Government

Border Patrol and ICE agents are enemy officers.

There is a loophole here, and that is, the IMBRA applies to agencies that charge fees. It is therefore left to individuals to post lots of brides on personal websites. There have been plenty of USA men posting their wives' sisters and nieces on small websites. There can even be ads on the sites, just not fees. Got a scanner? Got a PC? She just needs an e-mail address she can check from time to time at the internet cafe. The e-mail link can send an e-mail to the webmaster AND the woman, and that allows the webmaster to phone the woman.

It is pretty pathetic that the government relies on criminals to tell the government what is in its own public court records.

However, when fees are charged, it is a commercial transaction, international commerce, and the Constitution does empower Congress to regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes. So like Prohibition and the federal income tax, it's not unconstitutional, just very Despotic. Governments cannot acquire authority by manufacturing documents, even constitutions.
